Starting with gdb 7.10, gdb wants to re-generate its documentation.
We were trying to avoid that by patching the Makefiles, but it wasn't
working in all situations. So, we simply add a dependency on
host-texinfo in all case.

As reported in...
https://bugs.busybox.net/show_bug.cgi?id=8786
..., gdb fails to build with xz and expat support at the same time when
using an external toolchain.
This is how the problem is shown:
checking for liblzma... no
configure: error: missing liblzma for --with-lzma
And having a deeper look in gdb/config.log we can se a message like this
one:
/lib64/liblzma.so.5: undefined reference to `clock_gettime@GLIBC_2.17'
As Thomas said in the bug report quoted above, that error is related to
the fact that it find the host's lzma.
Adding --with-lzma-prefix=$(STAGING_DIR)/usr to GDB_CONF_OPTS fixes the
problem.

Even though this is only RC1 it's been heavily used internally so it should
not be any worse than existing arc-2014.12.
Moreover this relase (and so its RC1) finally delivers support of NPTL
for ARC in uClibc.
That's why it would be good to allow interested users to start trying it
(for example WebKit and apps that use WebKit could be successfully built
and run) also it will be helpful to run that new toolchain through
autobuilder in attempt to find any hidden regressions so we have a solid
toolchain for release.
If there's an interest in that patch more patches will follow with
subsequent RCs and essentially on appearence or relese Buildroot will be
updated with it.

The Buildroot coding style defines one space around make assignments and
does not align the assignment symbols.
This patch does a bulk fix of offending packages. The package
infrastructures (or more in general assignments to calculated variable
names, like $(2)_FOO) are not touched.
Alignment of line continuation characters (\) is kept as-is.
The sed command used to do this replacement is:
find * -name "*.mk" | xargs sed -i \
-e 's#^\([A-Z0-9a-z_]\+\)\s*\([?:+]\?=\)\s*$#\1 \2#'
-e 's#^\([A-Z0-9a-z_]\+\)\s*\([?:+]\?=\)\s*\([^\\]\+\)$#\1 \2 \3#'
-e 's#^\([A-Z0-9a-z_]\+\)\s*\([?:+]\?=\)\s*\([^\\ \t]\+\s*\\\)\s*$#\1 \2 \3#'
-e 's#^\([A-Z0-9a-z_]\+\)\s*\([?:+]\?=\)\(\s*\\\)#\1 \2\3#'
Brief explanation of this command:
^\([A-Z0-9a-z_]\+\) a regular variable at the beginning of the line
\([?:+]\?=\) any assignment character =, :=, ?=, +=
\([^\\]\+\) any string not containing a line continuation
\([^\\ \t]\+\s*\\\) string, optional whitespace, followed by a
line continuation character
\(\s*\\\) optional whitespace, followed by a line
continuation character
Hence, the first subexpression handles empty assignments, the second
handles regular assignments, the third handles regular assignments with
line continuation, and the fourth empty assignments with line
continuation.
This expression was tested on following test text: (initial tab not
included)
FOO = spaces before
FOO = spaces before and after
FOO = tab before
FOO = tab and spaces before
FOO = tab after
FOO = tab and spaces after
FOO = spaces and tab after
FOO = \
FOO = bar \
FOO = bar space \
FOO = \
GENIMAGE_DEPENDENCIES = host-pkgconf libconfuse
FOO += spaces before
FOO ?= spaces before and after
FOO :=
FOO =
FOO =
FOO =
FOO =
$(MAKE1) CROSS_COMPILE=$(TARGET_CROSS) -C
AT91BOOTSTRAP3_DEFCONFIG = \
AXEL_DISABLE_I18N=--i18n=0
After this bulk change, following manual fixups were done:
- fix line continuation alignment in cegui06 and spice (the sed
expression leaves the number of whitespace between the value and line
continuation character intact, but the whitespace before that could have
changed, causing misalignment.
- qt5base was reverted, as this package uses extensive alignment which
actually makes the code more readable.
Finally, the end result was manually reviewed.

If Binutils and/or GDB are fetched from the unified binutils-gdb
repository, then the tarball will contain both Binutils and GDB
sources, unlike the "normal" tarballs that contain only the titular
package. To keep packages separated in Buildroot we need to disable
undesired components when configuring.
Binutils and GDB migrated to a common Git repository in the October
2013 [1]. Previous Git repositories were incomplete copies of CVS
repository which copied only the relevant files (no binutils files in
GDB, and vice versa). In the new binutils-gdb repository there is no
such separation and a result all files exist in directory after
checkout. So if "configure" and "make" are used without explicit
targets, all projects will be built: binutils, ld, gas, bfd, opcodes,
gdb, etc. In case of Buildroot this would mean that selecting Binutils
only, still will build both Binutils and GDB. And if GDB is selected
as well, then both packages will be built two times, and Binutils from
GDB directory will overwrite initial build of Binutils (or vice versa
if Binutils will be built after the GDB). This is a serious problem,
because binutils and GDB use separate branches in this common
repository. In case of Buildroot this means that separate Git commits
(or tags) should be used when downloading source from Git.
This affects only Git repositories, because GNU release tarballs still
contain only relevant packages.
This change is backward compatible, because if "normal" tarball is
used (without extra directories), than --disable-* configure options
are just ignored by configure.

We recently (dfc3cc23af: gdb: switch to 7.x for Blackfin) moved to the

For some reason, we were keeping gdb version 6.6a specially for
Blackfin. However, it turns out that support for Blackfin was merged
in gdb 7.4 (cross-gdb and gdbserver, not native gdb on the
target). Therefore, we can simply remove the support for version 6.6a
and use 7.5 as the default.
Both 7.4 and 7.5 were built tested, including cross-gdb and gdbserver.
The original reason to switch to 7.x is that 6.6a doesn't build for
Blackfin FLAT, and while it builds for Blackfin FDPIC, it only builds
libiberty.a and does not actually build a cross debugger.

This commit slightly improves the external toolchain backend, and the
gdb build logic to create a file named
$(STAGING_DIR)/usr/share/buildroot/gdbinit which can be used as a
gdbinit file using gdb -x option. This allows gdb to automatically use
the proper sysroot to find libraries.
The initial insight for this patch comes from the report of Oded
Hanson <OHanson@xsightsys.com>, who found an issue with the Eclipse
Buildroot plugin, which was setting a solib-path in gdb, but not a
sysroot. Setting a solib-path was enough to find shared libraries, but
not the dynamic linker. And since Eclipse doesn't allow to set the
sysroot in any other way than giving a gdbinit file, it makes sense to
have Buildroot generate a gdbinit file (which can be used in other
situations than Eclipse).
To achieve this, this commit introduces a gen_gdbinit_file helper in
toolchain/helpers.mk, and uses it for the internal toolchain and
external toolchain backends.

In order to keep better track of when a feature got deprecated, and hence
when it can be removed, a new set of symbols BR2_DEPRECATED_SINCE_xxxx_xx is
introduced. These symbols are automatically selected when BR2_DEPRECATED is
selected, and thus are transparent to the user.
A deprecated feature will no longer depend on BR2_DEPRECATED directly, but
rather on the appropriate BR2_DEPRECATED_SINCE_xxxx_xx. If that symbol does
not yet exist, it has to be created in Config.in.
When removing a deprecated feature, one should also check whether this was
the last feature using the BR2_DEPRECATED_SINCE_xxxx_xx symbol, in which
case the latter can be removed from Config.in.
A followup patch will make sure the overview is added to the list of
deprecated features in the manual, so that a buildroot core developer can
easily determine which features to remove in a given development cycle.

When a package A depends on config option B and toolchain option C, then
the comment that is given when C is not fulfilled should also depend on B.
For example:
config BR2_PACKAGE_A
depends on BR2_B
depends on BR2_LARGEFILE
depends on BR2_WCHAR
comment "A needs a toolchain w/ largefile, wchar"
depends on !BR2_LARGEFILE || !BR2_WCHAR
This comment should actually be:
comment "A needs a toolchain w/ largefile, wchar"
depends on BR2_B
depends on !BR2_LARGEFILE || !BR2_WCHAR
or if possible (typically when B is a package config option declared in that
same Config.in file):
if BR2_B
comment "A needs a toolchain w/ largefile, wchar"
depends on !BR2_LARGEFILE || !BR2_WCHAR
[other config options depending on B]
endif
Otherwise, the comment would be visible even though the other dependencies
are not met.
This patch adds such missing dependencies, and changes existing such
dependencies from
depends on BR2_BASE_DEP && !BR2_TOOLCHAIN_USES_GLIBC
to
depends on BR2_BASE_DEP
depends on !BR2_TOOLCHAIN_USES_GLIBC
so that (positive) base dependencies are separate from the (negative)
toolchain dependencies. This strategy makes it easier to write such comments
(because one can simply copy the base dependency from the actual package
config option), but also avoids complex and long boolean expressions.

Until now, the gdb site for AVR32 was adjusted only when GDB_VERSION
was not set, i.e only when the cross-gdb is *not* built. We should in
fact also set the site when the cross-gdb is built, so when
GDB_VERSION is defined through package/gdb/Config.in.host.
So, instead, we now have something like:
ifeq ($(GDB_VERSION),)
# we define here a default version that is used when the cross-gdb is
# not built and only the target gdb is selected.
endif
ifeq ($(GDB_VERSION),something-special)
GDB_SITE = some-special-site-for-some-special-gdb-version

we install gdbserver in
